Lionel Standard Gauge Train Repair - Part 1
This engine from the 1930’s has a broken frame. In its current state it is not operational, and frames are expensive and hard to find. So the question then is this: Is it possible to repair the cast metal frame and get the engine working?
In part 1, I disassemble the engine, inspect the damage, and come up with a plan.
Follow along and let’s see if I can get this done.
Part 1 of ?
The legal stuffs:
I have no affiliation with Lionel, or anything else for that matter, and my repair methods are my own based on what has worked for me. Your results may vary. I am not responsible for any damage resulting from any repair method. I am here mostly to provide inspiration and insight.
Grab your tools and get to work!

Nope. Unfortunately the frame is trash. I may at some point pick up a new frame, but at $140, it isn’t a priority,

That looks like zinc pest. The warpage, stretching and brittleness are all signs. The JB Weld fix might give you some fun, but the structural integrity is well on its way to being totally gone.

Yeah, I’ve since all but given up on this one. Frames are too expensive and the old one is slowly turning to dust.

Did you keep this in the end, they are always repairable, much more than postwar

I still have it. One day I’ll fix it. It needs the frame. It’s available but $140 and I don’t want to invest that into this loco at the moment.

once the zinc casting rots its over no repair will save it it will just break next to the repair

Yeah this project has been mostly abandoned. I’d pick up a new frame but for $150 I just don’t want to make the investment
